Hi.
This is a special "news bulletin" from the election officials about the

Don't forget the voting ends at 2009-03-29 23:59:59 UTC, so if you
haven't voted, hurry up and cast your vote.
As a member of the Foundation, you should be aware of the current
Foundation Bylaws[2], in particular of the Members section[3].
All the information regarding this election can be checked on the
Elections Page[4], including the list of nominated members, links to
their manifestos, the time table, the list of officials and much more.
As explained in the election page, you can cast your vote in the
following way:
Eligible current Gentoo developers should login to dev.gentoo.org and
run the following commands, in the order specified.
* votify --new trustees2009 - This creates a new ballot in your homedir.
* Edit the .ballot-trustees2009 file and rank the candidates.
* Once you're sure, run votify --verify trustees2009 to check the
validity of the ballot.
* If that goes through fine, the next and final step is to submit
your vote using votify --submit trustees2009
* In case you're stuck, detailed help can be accessed by using
votify --help or feel free to drop by #gentoo-elections on IRC. If you
